Pump Bearings

Post by tomy2ponds »

Hi All I have found a company who can supply bearings for Sequence pumps Recently my Sequence 10.000/750 became noisy and having striped it down i found a worn rusty bearing.Having asked a few people where can i get some and being told they don't know, I went on the Internet to see what I could find.
Well I have a set of bearings coming total cost £8.52.
Duncan if it OK with you I will post there details.Please let me know if this is OK

Hi Erin your pump is a different model to mine so you will need to strip the pump and motor down and measure the bearings noting anything that is written on the casing of the bearing.Then if you phone the company they will be able to help you.you may need a bearing puller to get the old bearings off.

He have a dealer for SK bearings right around the corner. Surprising how little those suckers cost. I have gotten them in the past for my washer, drier and the trailer of the boat I used to have. Cheap as chips when you think about it.

Hi Scotty when you consider a new pump is around £180 it is very cheap
